The Field’s debut album was a thing of joy and wonder – sampling 80s anthems and crafting something special. Does the follow-up reach the same heights? Tom Whyman reviews.
Album Reviews

WhoMadeWho – The Plot
With thirteen tracks designed for your listening pleasure, there is a fair amount of filler on WhoMadeWho’s second album. Alex Harvey reviews.
Sky Larkin – The Golden Spike
Adam Nelson reviews the debut album from the Leeds hopefuls Sky Larkin but finds it difficult to be positive about it.
Emiliana Torrini – Me And Armini
An enjoyably scattershot affair, with modern day narratives that reflect the darkness of obsession, lust and heartbreak, and a few others in a reflective, laid back, optimistic style.
Mugison – Mugiboogie
Marc Higgins review’s the schizophrenic album from Iceland’s answer to Beck. Except this album is a whole world better than his previous effort.
